"We went on a Tuesday evening at about 6pm for our daughters birthday, family of four. We live locally and have used, and always enjoyed, Blacks and their burgers have been exceptional and never had cause to complain. They have recently had a refit, and it feels like it's removed all the atmosphere from the restaurant I can't put my finger on it, but something was missing. The staff barely spoke to us, he gave the menus but no explanation as to what to do, not a real problem, as we've been before but a simple bit of conversation wouldn't have hurt. Once our food was delivered, he never came and said is everything OK, when he cleared the dishes there was no was that OK, do you rant a dessert. Just nothing. Once again there are no non alcoholic beers on the app, so you spend ages loading your order on to the app and then have to go up to the till and order the drinks anyway... The temperature is the restaurant was close to freezing, to the point where it was uncomfortably cold. Both my kids wanted to keep their coats on, which doesn't make for a relaxed meal. Food was OK. Burgers were good, but not as amazing as they have been in the post, the beef was a bit tough in places, chips a bit cold and onion rings straight out of the freezer! And nothing was particularly warm, not cold but could have been alot warmer.. When it's over £150 for mains, puddings and drinks you just expect a bit more but today we got a lot less.. Very disappointing and doubt we will return now. There are better places in Epsom to eat nowadays..."
